No. If it gets to that point, it will be Goons versus CCP.

Pon Farr Memorial: once every 7 years, all the carebears in high-sec must PvP or they will be temp-banned.

According to many, that's the same as saying Goons v Goons Smile

CCP should thus be renamed "GCP".

Or be like you and don't speak any facts of any kind or have a rational discussion and just make random comments


I don't have to do anything more than make random comments when you insist on losing the argument to Malcanis lol. You demonstrated that you don't know the ins and outs of the moon goo issues and got set straight. Don't be mad at me, you're the one unprepared for a discussion you chose to engage in lol.


Considering it was the The Mittani himself who stated that CFC required the r64 to maintain the same level income from Moon Goo with the change.

Also I am not arguing.. its called a discussion, something which you seem to know very little about Blink

0.0 needs a radical overhaul and its not all about goo and moo either, its about how large scale operations and combat works. having a frigate being able to call in a huge cap fleet via cyno is just plain silly.





Pretty much this. It's poor game mechanics.

Yes, I know it makes for shiny videos and news bursts to draw in customers. "Oh, look, a 4K person battle which you can be a part of because butterflies, or some ****."

....but the reality is they simply do not reflect a realistic view. Well, since we are talking about Internet spaceships. let's be kind and say "more realistic." :P

However, it's not going to change. CCP WANTS assembling large fleets to be, if not "easy" then easier than it should actually be since the driving propaganda behind the game has always been "big battles give autists raging boners."

Bring your possibles.

Even if there were small gang stuff and no timers you would still see huge ass fights like that.

Let someone fail jump a Titan, that was Askani
Z9PP wasn't over an objective, the hub had already been repped, that had the potential for both sides to go balls deep when the we got Q9PP'd
C-J6 was over RA's captiol system, they didn't show up, -A- duked it out with PL on that one, it was pl's trial run for slowcats.


As long as you can get from one end of New Eden to the other before a Titan's DD cooldown expires, you are going to have battles that escalate completely out of control.

There will be much whining on many forums about eve being unfair, and everything from titan to moon mining should be nerfed.

And AFK cloaking...

Everyone is always repeating the mantra "Don't Trust Anyone" ad nauseum... If I can't trust the guys I play with, why bother playing with them at all? Fly Solo...

Nah. There's always Providence. I doubt the goons would want to destroy the happy hunting grounds.

You know that is nearly as far from traditional Goonspace as you can get without going to somewhere way out like Paragon Soul (god I hate that region)

Besides we just kicked TEST back into Delve, its going to be like a Safari with 12000 accounts jammed into one regoin

That is all true. It's one reason I don't think they'd be that interested in doing it. I also said the instead of their for a reason. Provi is *everyone's* happy hunting ground. P

To much of a pain in the ass to get over there, plus the locals aren't very much fun, you either get kitchen sink fleets of ratters, or they hot drop your ten man gang with 90 battle cruisers.

.....I'm kind of looking foreward to ...erm, enhanced.....blop tagets.

tbh, there wasn't much reason to try small ganging in the months before I left Provi. The visiting fleets tended to be thirty or more peeps. As for the kitchen sink, yeah but that's what makes Provi cool. :)

We are so bad at the Alliance Tournament we would probably still lose.
